November 17, 2022 - The wine looks purple-coloured. The legs are fast or nonexistent. There is no sediment in the bottle. While definitely fruity, it tastes like a light blackberry. The body is light. The wine has a light, silky texture. The wine finishes short and has low acidity.
This is a nice wine, nothing too remarkable. At CAD 20.70 it was a reasonable wine but will likely be forgettable other than it is 100% Bobal. -

August 6, 2022 - Fruity and rather light on style. Some intense fruity note, but not at all refined. Not sure what to think about it. Had the feeling that it was better a year ago.

July 9, 2021 - Color: Transparent ruby. Nose: Not much going on. Mouth: Silky mouthfeel. Red berries. Light bodied. Short to medium finish. Fresh. Not that expressive. Rather simple but average to good. After a while of breathing this wine has become much better. Now there are cherries. It is almost Burgundian in style and aroma, now. The alc. of 14% is very well hidden. Hence 4 more points (before 82).
